About this lesson

Ever wonder why the cleanest, most helpful dashboards often require the most grueling engineering work? The answer usually hides in complex data modeling and rigid business rules. Take Point-in-Time AR reporting, for instance, a concept that strikes fear into data teams because many ERP systems simply weren't built to look backward at historical debt. What appears to be a basic chart on the surface is often the result of immense backend lifting to ensure accuracy. Brick and Landon peel back the curtain on why effective data visualization is deceptively difficult.
